Cross Farm (or Rosemarket) Dovecote is a circular, rubble-built structure with a conical roof, containing some 200 nesting boxes, possibly 13th-14th century. Rosemarket was granted to the Knights Hospitallers in the 12th century and after the Reformation the dovecote was associated with the 'Great House', which stood until the 19th century.
